@workinwithwords Thanks, though sometimes I feel like the line about the old Bourbon monarchy in France might also apply to me: "They've learned nothing and forgotten nothing." — PolitiTweet.org

@Stretchct @DemFromCT When no candidate, in my view, has a better than 30-percent chance at the nomination, I consider that we are lacking in a frontrunner. — PolitiTweet.org

A Trump mystery: Since Trump makes everything up, why did he need Rudy's and Ukraine's help in searching for dirt on Hunter Biden? Why didn't he just invent a conspiracy rather than (shocker) theoretically searching for facts? — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
From my @newrepublic piece on the 2020 race: "Why hasn't Joe Biden—the longtime chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee—at least led the Democratic response to Trump’s disastrous and humiliating retreat from Syria?" Why hasn't he taken command? https://t.co/Lux9rcDbHu — PolitiTweet.org

@DemFromCT I am sure I am wrong about stuff. I worship at the shrine of humility rather than false certainty. Thanks for the kind words, though. — PolitiTweet.org

From my latest @newrepublic piece: "At times, the Bernie Sanders campaign has reminded me of the Shakers, a nineteenth-century Protestant sect whose members did not reproduce. They left behind beautiful furniture and no worshippers." https://t.co/Lux9rcDbHu — PolitiTweet.org

Stunning to realize that in the Trump White House, John Bolton was the sane responsible adult. — PolitiTweet.org

@alexheard In the book, the Devil finds a backup Joe Hardy because he hates the Dodgers and wants the Senators to win the World Series. The book is great fun even without Gwen Verdon. — PolitiTweet.org

@greenfield64 I think your off by a factor of ten. I think Bloomberg could only afford $1,000 voter gifts. — PolitiTweet.org

@LeeMiringoff Houston Street, we have a potential problem. — PolitiTweet.org

I agree totally. Also campaigns only leak their best polls. So you can’t do a polling average even if you have the full data set for a particular poll. — PolitiTweet.org

I can’t help thinking about a sportswriter Dick Young’s lede after Don Larsen’s perfect game in the 1956 World Series: “The imperfect man just pitched a perfect game.” — PolitiTweet.org

@mattizcoop I only went back to Jimmy Walker. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
As near as I can tell, the last NY mayor (or former mayor) to be indicted was Jimmy Walker in 1932. Bill O’Dwyer resigned amid corruption charges in 1950, but was never indicted. Will Rudy add to this history? — PolitiTweet.org

@SenatorZero But JFK swamped Hubert Humphrey in the pivotal West Virginia primary because he had massive family money and Humphrey was broke. See “Making of the President 1960” for stories of Humphrey’s plight. — PolitiTweet.org

If Rudy Giuliani for some reason is unable to escape for Tuesday’s Yankee game in New York, who gets his tickets? That’s the big question hovering over everything. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@SenatorZero I was thinking about the 1960 campaign, especially the primaries which were mostly funded by Joe Kennedy. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
One idea to help fix the debates: Maybe we could "devote an entire debate to the questions of governing: How would candidates staff an administration? Deal with a balky Congress? Or structure the White House?" From my @BrennanCenter column: https://t.co/tm9T6osgdg — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
"Primary debates may have permanently lost their luster as a way to help voters sort out a large field of candidates questing for a presidential nomination." That's from my new @BrennanCenter column. And I have some ideas on how to fix the debates. https://t.co/tm9T6osgdg — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
At least, Nelson Rockefeller and Jack Kennedy had the good taste not to urge people to send them money. But the DNC's cockamamie debate rules create these bizarre incentives and Steyer gamed the system. And, of course, it's more important that Steyer debate than, say, Klobuchar. — PolitiTweet.org

@keithedwards Let me seriously think about it. — PolitiTweet.org

@keithedwards I am honored. But I don’t feel strongly enough to be the passionate voice of opposition on this issue. Especially when I am busy covering the 2020 Democrats and impeachment. — PolitiTweet.org

@opinion_joe Small wonder that this was the country that added Prohibition to its Constitution. Ah, the ideological purity police. — PolitiTweet.org

From my @Guardian piece on impeachment: "The practical problem facing the House Democrats is that turning to the federal courts to uphold subpoenas is a time-consuming process that makes Freudian analysis seem fleet-footed in comparison." https://t.co/ruNMMTcSsl — PolitiTweet.org
